We’re experts in the building consent process, with years of experience advising on and submitting the forms, permits and assessments councils require for building work. Whether you’re working on a major commercial development, or just considering some renovations at home, you can trust the team at Holmes Farsight to help you find the most practical path to building code compliance.

Understanding and translating council requirements

The Building Code can be hard to navigate—and the various documents the council needs might seem never-ending. We’ve got years of experience working through council requirements, so we know what they need to see, and when they need to see it. We can support you with tricky documentation like a ‘Notice To Fix’, ‘Certificate of Public Use’, and ‘Certificate of Acceptance’. We’ll help you understand what you need to do, and we can even submit documentation on your behalf if you’d prefer to have the hassle taken off your hands.
